The blindfold race!

Quit after the 8th. Had 4 DNFs, and when I had confidence I was going to get this solve, I popped on the second turn...Easy scramble too :(
I'll start from 10-100 tomorrow.

u don't really need to change ur method, just stick with pochmann until u really can't get any faster. i see some people actually average bout sub-2 with pochann, so it is possible with some practice.
 
Best of 100 (incomplete): 22.86
37.19, DNF(47), DNF(43), DNF, DNF(54), 22.86

I'll still do the rest but I won't beat that.

EDIT: nvm I can't be bothered

FFFFFFFFFFFFFFF 55.XX BLD SOLVE. BUT 3 CYCLE CORNERS. FUUUUUUUUU

I'm willing to bet there's a pretty good scramble there somewhere in the early stages of the 100 scrambles :rolleyes:

Extremely frustrating first 25 solves. Best time of 35.40 but 10/25 solved urgh..I was actually hoping for a good accuracy rather a good single time. Memo can't seem to stick, shall try more later/tomorrow. I guess I'll edit my times in here too. Doubt I'll beat that single anyway.

Edit: Didn't think I'd do all 100 today, but I kept trying to improve my accuracy and failing miserably. Oh well, at least there were four sub-37 in the session :) Pretty good avg5 towards the very end too

Round 14 best of 100 - 34.51

number of times: 43/100
best time: 34.51
worst time: 1:18.76

current avg5: DNF (σ = 33.98)

Horrible accuracy near the end. Caused by being extremely tired. Solves 45-100 were all done within a few hours. Some breaks now and then, but I've never done more than 15 in one day, so doing 55 was a huge strain! Another sub1 DNF in the 70s :(.

On the 1:12.38, I memorized really slow for no good reason (almost 40 seconds), but it was probably the fastest solving phase I've ever done.
On the 1:04.16, I had a pretty bad lockup that cost me 2 or 3 seconds. This is my fastest time ever on a non-lucky generated scramble. (I had a 1:03.xx once on a hand scramble.)

I clearly have good days and bad days. Solves 31 through 60 are a bad day. (I kept believing it would get better, but it didn't. So I finally wised up and started doing non-counting solves instead.) Solves 61-70 are a good day.

Ryan appears to be consistently slightly better than me on both single and average. I win on accuracy, though. :)

This was terrible accuracy for me, but that's okay because I was going for broke as much as possible; I was emphasizing speed over accuracy on all solves. Considering that, the accuracy was pretty good.

10. DNF [2:21.91] 2 Flipped edges
11. DNF [2:20.55] 4 Flipped edges -- weird

22. DNF [] Interrupted

24. DNF [2:40.59] 2x2x3 block. Otherwise scrambled.
25. 2:16.18
26. 3:24.52 Interrupted mid-corners memo (which is audio), and managed to remember it without refreshing.
27. DNF [2:27.20]

1-13: Jesus. I knew I should have stopped after about 5. I was tired, and everything seemed to be going wrong.
14-27: My head hurts. A lot.

Fun :) but took a lot of time, no other cubing for two days :)

Total 71/100, best 1:17.71.
Best memo 24 secs, worst 2:10.
But on the 24 memo I had a memo recall pause so it was too fast.
The best solve had a 30 memo.

Median solve 1:55.54, median memo 45 sec.
Worst solve 3:30.57, another sup-3.

Thanks Mike for the practice :) :).

Mike you're trying to kill me aren't you? Though I hugely appreciate the practice. I think I'm going to attempt the last 50% (or however many I do) with comm corners. My speed just isn't improving due to move count :(.

Edit-41st solve. Sub1 DNF. Disappointing :(. It's elusive. Did 2 comms :D. One edge/one corner. Must have done the corner backwards...?

Aww, I'm sorry to hear it, but it sounds like you're close. I'm experimenting too, which is probably hurting me as well. I've come up with what I am considering "optimal parity" solutions. Admittedly, it's not truly optimal; I always solve to have the same two corners left at the end, but given that, I have optimal setups to T or J perms for every final edge. And I'm introducing more BH edge cases for some of my few remaining ones that are not yet. Anyway, I'm certainly getting more DNFs than usual because of it.

Yeah my last 50 are going to be slow/painful DNFs (assuming I do them all). I want to be sub1 by nationals and I don't see me getting it with my current execution :D. You still have amazing accuracy. I'd be proud :).

I have a similar project that's been in hiatus for a long time, but instead, having algs or setups for solving all DF-xx and UBR-xxx cases. It's only 22*21=462 cases. Also, an unrelated project I started recently but stopped: speed-optimal x-centers from Ulb buffer, and when I need to use a different buffer just AUF it (amos gave me that last idea)
